About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- KayinArlington0 contributionsLearn about Killarney with a local expertMary picked me up at my hotel at 8 a.m. so that we could drive the Gap of Dunloe before the single track road became clogged with "jaunty" carts. It was a perfect Irish morning -- intermittent drizzle with the sun peaking through the clouds occasionally. We periodically stopped so that I could take photos or simply to enjoy the absolute quiet and peace (and for the sheep!). After we left the mountains, we visited sites in and around Killarney National Park, including Muckross Abbey and Muckross House. Mary's knowledge of Irish history and folklore go beyond the Chamber of Commerce talking points on the region's landmarks.Written September 10, 2024
- JessicaG23550 contributionsTreat yourself with a guided tour with Mary!Great experience! Mary was great fun and was so knowledgeable of the area and history. Would book her again in a heartbeat.Written September 5, 2024
- LightPacker6378260 contributionsDon't hesitate - book your tour with Mary! She is THE BESTMy husband, adult daughter and I recently spent two full days with Mary. We would hire her again in a heartbeat (and we plan to when we are back in Ireland!) for so many reasons. First, Mary is extremely knowledgable and continuously studying. We learned so much from her and she also gave us great tips regarding the rest of our trip (and future trips). Second, she made it fun! She is funny and easy to get along with. Third, she is a great driver and her car is very comfortable. We felt very safe with her - and we were glad we didn't have to drive on the "wrong" side of the road!!! Finally, she was able to take us places buses couldn't go and we could skip things we weren't interested in/stop at others. Don't hesitate - if she is available, book a trip with her!Written August 26, 2024
- AWs87109a0 contributionsSpectacular day on Dingle PeninsulaMary was great, very attentive and warm. She took us over the whole peninsula. Stopped where ever we wanted, and had loads of interesting antidotes throughout the whole drive. Very warm and funny. Would highly recommend this tour to anyone.Written August 6, 2024
- susanjV4029MY0 contributionsLet Mary do the driving and enjoy the views !Mary is an exellent driver with a great personality and a beautiful car. I wanted to give my husband a break from driving so he could relax and enjoy the day without worring about navigating the rural roads on the Dingle Penninsula. We saw so many parts of Dingle that we would not have found on our own. Mary shares her local knowlege and history as well. Highly recommend!Written July 28, 2024
- brigittefQ484FS0 contributionsHappy Family!Mary was informative and engaging. We learned a great deal about Ireland and the region. The ride was comfortable and we luckily had great weather to enjoy the sites. She was accommodating, allowing us to squeeze in the Cliffs of Kerry too.Written July 24, 2024
- D8184YCrickc0 contributionsFantastic tour with MaryMary was a fabulous tour guide. Great knowledge of the area and history. She guided us to many remote local areas with incredible views. She gave us many options in terms of stops for drinks and food. She was pleasure to get to know on our journey. We’d highly recommend her for the Ring of Kerry tour.Written July 16, 2024
- heatherh8160 contributionsDingle/Slea Head Loop July 2024, private tourI highly recommend Mary! She was so easy to communicate with, and setting up details ahead of time went very smoothly. She is very flexible and accomodating to meet our individual schedule, agreeing to work an afternoon rather than a morning. We joined Mary at the Gap of Dunloe and she took us to Dingle/Slea Head Loop. She had amazing driving skills, including navigating the narrow/switchback roads and avoiding hitting a rabbit, which I very much appreciated because it would have broken my heart! She was soo incredibly friendly and knowledgeable about the area. She was easy to talk to, had a great sense of humor, and was very clearly passionate about her home country. She speaks several languages and has spent time traveling the world. We would definitely recommend Mary and if we ever go back to the area, we will be reacing out again to her!Written July 16, 2024
- Kenmaretuosist0 contributionsDenis is backHad a great tour with Denis. He's back at it and does a great job as usual. Had a half-day tour of Dingle, Shea Head and all the attractions. Denis sits in your car while you drive and he shows you all the highlights. Highly recommendedWritten May 27, 2024
- ReadytoTravel510 contributionsFantastic toursMary is an excellent guide full of knowledge. She is also a warm, kind person. We did two tours with her and enjoyed letting her do the driving while we watched the scenery go by. Dingle and Ring of Kerry. She took the time to show us things you ordinarily would not see or notice along the routes. I highly recommend her.Written May 27, 2024
- Connector8201420 contributionsMary G. Excellent guideMary G. Was an exceptional guide. Gifted and meant to do this type of work. We were lucky to have her and she made our tour wonderful. Wish most guides could emulate Mary! PaolaWritten May 12, 2024
- kevinnY8829MH0 contributionsWonderful tour with an outstanding guideMy family had a wonderful day on this tour. Mary is extremely friendly, knowledgeable and happy to share insightful information about every stop along the way. It was also nice to have some options here and there to fit our particular interests and not waste time elsewhere. Just be aware that the roads can get a bit bumpy and curvy (not Mary's fault!) for those that get motion sickness; just take your dramamine and you'll be fine.Written May 11, 2024
- Ktravel270 contributionsThree Wonderful Days in Southern IrelandMy husband and I were in Ireland for the first time and booked a three day tour to the Ring of Kerry, Dingle Peninsula and Beara Peninsula. We LOVED Mary G. O'Sullivan! She is experienced, knowledgeable, fun, very good natured, and relaxed. We were able to go where a bus tour could not have taken us, and we saw castles, the impressive Uragh stone circle, beautiful vistas and more. We would so enjoy getting to spend more time with her on future trips. It was our most enjoyable travel experience ever.Written May 8, 2024
- 741cherylj0 contributionsWe found a real Gem in the Emerald IslandMary was exceptionally knowledgeable as she grew up in the area so she's seen history unfold here. The personal touch and stories of her interaction with some of the local resident contemporaries makes history come alive. She stayed ahead of the buses and crowds and showed us the corners and hidden gems!! Very relaxing and personal - Great day and best way to see so much - thank you MaryWritten April 5, 2024
- 741cherylj0 contributionsWe found a true gem on the “Emerald island”Mary is extremely knowledgeable and full of personal stories with key person of history- she knew how to stay ahead of the busses and showed us out of the way corners and views without the crowds- make the most of your day with MaryWritten April 3, 2024
